Biomedical Engineering - BEng (Hons)

Course overview

Business and research environments need engineers who can design complete solutions involving complex integrated systems. Biomedical Engineering at Kent educates engineers that can develop systems used in medical practice and biology research.

This cross-disciplinary programme is designed for students with an equally strong interest in engineering and biology/medicine. Drawing from our established expertise in engineering technologies and from the research synergies with Biosciences, this degree produces engineers with a solid knowledge in biology and medical science.

Foundation year

If you do not have appropriate qualifications for direct entry, some degrees offer an integrated foundation year which starts at a point before honours degree entry (Stage 0).  

Year in Industry / Placement year

Gaining work experience while you study can give you a headstart when you graduate. Lots of our courses offer placement years which take place between your second and final years.
